A longstanding Grove Street gym will close Saturday, and an application was filed this week to put an estimated $325,000 into renovating the space.
360 Fitness at number 45 Grove (in the ground floor of the New Canaan Racquet Club) was unable to find a new space after it no longer could stay in its location, according to a message posted to the gym’s website by owner Steve Bazewicz.

On Wednesday, plans were filed with the New Canaan Building Department to renovate 14,000 square feet in the lower level of 45 Grove St., including new floors and doors, removal of sauna, hot tubs, updated locker rooms, new interior wall partitions, extended sprinklers and reworked HVAC system. The application notes work being done “for personal training fitness.”
According to the application, the plans were drawn up by Balance Architecture LLC of Norwalk.
According to tax records, 45 Grove St. is owned by New Canaan Lumber Co. The principals of that company could not immediately be reached for comment.
The message left by Bazewicz says Oxygen Fitness on Pine Street will honor prepaid time on existing memberships at 360.
